John,

I don't know what a "umlaut" is, never heard the word, guess I gotta lookee it up.

Okie dokie, here it is, found it.

Main Entry: 1um·laut Pronunciation: \ˈüm-ˌlau̇t, ˈu̇m-\ Function: noun Etymology: German, from um- around, transforming + Laut sound Date: circa 1845 1 a: the change of a vowel (as \ü\ to \ē\ in goose, geese) that is caused by partial assimilation to a succeeding sound or that occurs as a reflex of the former presence of a succeeding sound which has been lost or altered b: a vowel resulting from such partial assimilation2: a diacritical mark ¨ placed over a vowel to indicate a more central or front articulation — compare diaeresis

Hmmm, now that I know what of you are referring to ... spell check did that - not me.
